PROJECT #13 is the renovation of a 30-year old HDB FLAT in Singapore; It addresses the brief to house 2 PROGRAMMES (HOME and OFFICE) within the small foot-print of the flat and achieves a ‘framework’ to enable its FUTURE-PROOFING.

The result is a new flat that allows EASY RE/ADAPTATION for a VARIETY OF USES (office and residential) and USE PATTERNS (one or more households) within a formerly single-use residential unit.

While small in scale, it is exemplary in the RE-PURPOSING of a HDB flat where more than 80% of Singapore’s population resides, sustaining it over the course of the building’s life.
